Everything about this game, from the 40 shows CIG makes every week, to the excuse documentaries (Road to Citizen Con aka stdh.mp4) to the backers claiming how much fun they're having in the "verse" has the strong stench of STDH. You could end anything Star Citizen related with "and that developer was Albert Einstein" and it would work. "You don't understand game development." -- George Carlin

It's also very funny to me that the most original thing to come out of Star Citizen is the Stimpire bit.

Ah yeah, the dawn of the new Jesus Patch is upon us. I remember when it was 2.0, then it was 2.5. Now it's 3.0. DAE feel like prospective backers should wait for 3.0. the current alpha is frustrating. honest opinions.

Nick Elms of Gizmondo fame lets us know that they've simplified spawning in wank pods. It was a lot of flow graph complexity before to get those 12 commandos waking up in their pods but now there are spawn objects or whatever. Simulated universe with thousands of independent mobile NPCs going about unique daily interactive schedules, two weeks. They're also getting close to having the AI able to run unnaturally down the middle of a hallway. Capital ships bustling with AI and player life as they all move smoothly about the ship replacing fuses and saluting, two weeks. "The first Levski exterior VFX pass is underway!" Totally gonna be in 3.0 at the end of the month

I don't own any of that stuff, I just have an agreement with the people who do. I feel like this must have been settled in a court somewhere. It can't be that there has never been a case involving someone being caught stealing laptops, with the contents of those laptops being considered either way for restitution. But in the end, these are claims based on contract law, or consumer protection laws in how a company may provide a service. You're not chasing a hacker for claims of theft to retrieve an iTunes account; such cases turn on questions on what duty you're owed as a subscriber, not an intrinsic right as a property owner.

kw0134 posted:They're both licenses, and how courts view them vary because in the end it's a contract claim made against the service provider and it depends on the contents of the specific license offered to the consumer. So in theory, the license can say "you're hosed" and that may well be the end that. I'm not personally aware of any case that has contested such a clause that was a defense when the provider screwed it up. Mostly though, because of the shitstorm such a stance would cause, providers don't try to strictly enforce it. ^ this. There's been a bunch of claims against clickwraps and EULAs over time, but they've usually resulted in a more finely grained EULA rather than resulting to calling anything ephemeral and digital 'property', so it remains largely contractual and a headache that nobody really wants the test case for when someone attempts to claim grandpas iTunes Ska collection. There's value in accounts, but it's largely contractual and dies with the owner. palpable, palpable cognitive dissonance. Forebrain is completely panicking.

All it takes is one Also, the whole donation poo poo or "I didn't buy a ship I funded development" is pants-on-head retarded because CIG has an item in their store to do just that... donate 5$. Ok, maybe it gives you something dumb like a Big Benny's Soup Bowl on release of the game, but if ships are NOT the intended product, why not just actually donate money? Why be concerned about getting a ship in return at all? Oh, right, because owning a ship in a space sim game is sorta/kinda essential and not having one is dumb.

It can't be that there has never been a case involving someone being caught stealing laptops, with the contents of those laptops being considered either way for restitution. Windows licenses are handled a little differently because of their activation scheme. Your key is not your license, and your license is not your key. An OEM license allows you use of Windows on a specific machine, whereas a retail license you can install anywhere you like, and move it from system to system if you don't keep it on the previous systems, etc. The "license" is a concept that you just have to keep mental or spreadsheet track of. The "activation key" is just a technicality and since several are given with each license, it's historically assumed you'll use a specific key on with the systems you've licensed. If I am a legal owner of 10 Server 2012 R2 licenses, and 8 of the machines are activated with the 50-use MAK that came with the license package, and the last 2 are activated with some key I got from a friend, Microsoft couldn't give less of a poo poo. Activating the system is really not their concern - whether I've paid them for licenses is. You can even call them on the phone and they can manually activate the box without a key. Most companies do annual audits with Microsoft and all they care about is Number of Machine Cores Running OS vs. Number of OS Licenses. So with that derail out of the way... this is one of the fastest growing areas of law - digital ownership. When you own 100 Steam games, what do you own? Do you have an agreement with Steam or the original publisher? If Steam goes out of business what are you still entitled to, or are you SOL? I personally liken it to an annual pass for an amusement park. I pay my money, I can go into the park for 365 days. The park could go bankrupt and close, and I'm out that money, because there's nobody to give me a refund. Maybe I get sick and can't go 3/4 of the year. Again, I'm SOL. Maybe on the day I plan to go I get into an accident. Historically, not every cash transaction was "cash money exchanged for physical item with all ownership privileges". People have paid for intangibles for as long as there have been people: prostitutes or other companionship, guard duty, plays/movies/other entertainment, gym memberships with tiers of privileges, and so on. There's a reason the phrase "get your money's worth" is older than dirt: sometimes you're not paying for a thing, you're paying for the potential to do a thing. The reason all this circles back to a useless conversation with respect to Star Citizen is that because Chris Roberts is in charge, this project never had a prayer of being completed, much less of being good. Everyone who pumped money into this is going to get hosed in the rear end without lube, and they can Reddit-Rage all they want - they're getting poo poo in return. All the armchair lawyers in the world can't restore self-respect to someone who only bought in because they had none to begin with.

Jobbo_Fett posted:All it takes is one Imagine if it were PBS taking donations and giving out totes. You would have gangs of these people online discussing the various strengths of the fabrics used for the totes. The size and volume capacity of the totes. The types of missions you could take your tote on. There would be online trading posts for buying and selling totes without donating more to PBS. The totes would be purchasable with lifetime guarantees to maximize their values. There would be a rush to donate more every time a new concept tote would be released. None of these people would give a poo poo otherwise about donating to PBS to keep public broadcasting alive. It would all be about the totes.
